"CJ delivers the mouthwatering scrumptiousness every time. Her dishes are delectable. And I am a connoisseur of all things delicious."
-Jack Black

Tired of forking over hundreds of dollars for entertaining her friends and family, Christiane Jory made a decision.

In this delightful, practical cookbook, Jory serves up delectable dishes, including:

• Artichoke Spinach Bake on Homemade Pizza Bread

This handy guide is filled with sample menus, a glossary of cooking terms, and space for creating recipes of your very own. Each recipe includes an estimated cost and helpful kitchen hints, such as uses for recycled milk cartons and how to freeze egg whites. Never again will finances be an excuse for not entertaining with pizzazz. With The 99¢ Only Stores Cookbook, feeding a family, playing host to five or six, or even simply cooking for one at home needn't cost a small fortune ever again!
